2. IVSO Galaxy Tab S3 9.7 Keyboard Case

The IVSO Keyboard Case for the Tab S3 contrasts against the Samsung-official keyboard case by offering just about the same suite of features for literally $100 cheaper.

A keyboard folio helps convert your Tab S3 to a workstation where you can comfortably write emails and essays without your touch keypad taking up half the screen.

The keyboard charges in about three hours, and lasts about sixty. It can be removed and reattached from the polyurethane front cover with ease, converting this from a true keyboard case to a more lightweight carry case.

The back panel of the case clips tightly onto the Tab S3, and has a soft microfiber interior lining to pad the tablet from rough handling. The case also has a handy kickstand to complete the setup.

3. KuGi Galaxy Tab S3 9.7 Case

(Amazon)

This trifold case from KuGi is yet another product that aims to massively undercut Samsung’s official folio case with a vastly more appealing price. And I say more power to ’em.

It is not realistic to expect everyone who wants a Tab S3 to be able to afford a $60 case after buying a $600 tablet, but they should still have some budget option to keep that gorgeous HDR screen and glass back safe.

The KuGi case leverages is made from premium quality PU leather and has a soft microfiber interior, same as the Samsung brand case.

Its front cover folds back to make for a three-way stand as well, meaning that the only thing you are giving up by going with this product is the name brand.

4. Belk Premium Leather Tab S3 Case

The Belk Premium Leather Tab S3 Case is probably one of the nicest looking cases you can find so far, and I’m not just saying that because the rest are plain matte black.

The polyurethane leather case is just a little thicker than the competition. This combined with the flexible TPU inner shell provide better shock absorption than other cases, without sacrificing too much in form factor.

The front cover of this case doesn’t fold in as many styles as the KuGi trifold, but it offers three handy slip pockets for credit cards and bills, plus a study strap to hold your tablet in one hand.

5. Omoton Ultra-Thin Keyboard Case Cover

Omoton’s Ultra-Thin Keyboard Case Cover will see a slight delay between the Tab S3’s release and its own, but those who wait patiently will be rewarded with a solid keyboard folio at a fair price.

Your Tab S3 snaps into the case’s form-fitting back plate, where it is covered by a PU leather cover. This cover also hides a slim Bluetooth keyboard, which offers about seventy five hours of on time with a full charge.

The keyboard is removable, but the case is light and thin enough that you might as well just keep it handy at all times.
